Recently, the wonderful people of New Orleans sent provisions by rail to those hit by Hurricane Sandy in New Jersey. Luckily, I was only without power for a few days, but many of my fellow residents have not been so fortunate.

Some have no idea what condition their homes are in because they are still unable to return. I know that many of Katrina's victims went through the same, and some suffered much worse horrors. Thank you so much for your assistance across many miles.
